Dr. Asad - Thank you for being real and speaking facts. Our people need to understand their are rules that we have to abide by and respect. That's how we maintain respect and keep a good name for ourselves and our community.
Thanks for your sober take on the issue. Your ability to put emotions aside is remarkable. We love Jabu, so it's easy to be emotional about this. Good luck to Stacey, we hope to see him back with Savannah in his hand asap.
Its definitely a frustrating process. I'm right here in DC. I've met the criteria. But its still a very difficult time. Ringing the doorbell multiple times is a must.
The African American need to establish a legal footprint in South Africa and Africa at large. There needs to be an NGO, Union or NPO that represents the interests (Visas, property, injustices etc) of AA in SA and the rest of Africa. Ive noticed everyone that come to SA come prepared and well represented legally, the Jewish community here got their own NGO that represents their interests same goes for Europeans, Boers (Afriforum), Zimbabweans (Hellen Suzman, SERI) etc. Its easy addressing diplomatic issues united than individually. AA need to start an NGO/NPO, then Petition to Home Affairs (would happily sign that petition).
I agree with you but also suggest caution when taking what could be interpreted as a combative route. Those NGOs are hated by all South Africans because they are viewed as fighting against the black government, and in some cases sabotaging the efforts of the government. Being our brothers and sisters, it would be important to keep this in mind and avoid copying the existing organisations. A better option regarding immigration is to have a law firm or American lawyer study the immigration policies of South Africa, register locally and advise on visas but also handle court petitions, not in an adversarial manner but just handling the legal stuff. Always remember that it’s only been 30 years since black people took over. In many ways we are still very tentative as the work to overhaul an entire system has nit been completed, and therefore there is also much sensitivity. We aren’t a well established society, we are work in progress. Dr Asad always emphasises patience for a reason, I believe.
@@Ntuthu-ZA we not talking about changing immigration laws in SA or undermining a black goverment. Here im suggesting that first generation African Americans who try to settle in the continent or travel here should try to make it easier for second generation AA. 10 years from now AA cannot be having the same problems without any solutions being provided, its not nice hearing that someone who tried to enter SA legally ended up sleeping at an airport or got scammed or coerced to pay a bribe for services. AA need a legal body that will make it easier to travel, settle and do business in Afrika, much like the real south africa they give AA 5 star treatment in travel, property investment. Check how the Real South Africa have made travelling and investing in Africa for African Americans easier. There are organisation in SA that promote businesses and investments only to white americans and europeans.
Absolutely! Try to make a 'spontaneous' visit to Germany, as a South African or Namibian.We have it so much easier going to SA on western passports. This is, in my opinion, sometimes the reason people run into trouble. Follow the rules, without exception. It is home but until everything is sorted out, we are guests. Exactly like my kids in my house, or me in my mama's house.
I hear you uncle Asad and you are right, but Jabu’s story really breaks my heart. The people who want to be here legally and contributing to the country are the once that have a tough time with visas.
Love it Dr Asad Its true, we love having our people coming back home but this has to be done first, thats all, these steps are necessary, GOOD LUCK TO BUTI JABU❤
True they know that countries like Norway, blacks will find it hard to survive because their DNA that makes them easier to adapt to African weather conditions. It will be like someone hindering you to come back home.
An example for African Americans is our South African Indians, South African Europeans, Malaysians, etc. They can not just wake up and say we are going back home, claim their rights, land, etc. Without a visa or some procedures. Once they leave SA, they realize that South Africa is their home because they can come back anytime they want without any complications. Same as African Americans, America will always be their home, but Africa is their heart.
Yep. Many of the local white people desperately want to leave South Africa and emigrate to Europe, the US, New Zealand or Australia, but they don’t qualify and they are stuck here. No one is even offering them the right to return. President Trump proposed giving them free visas and his idea was shot down swiftly by his administration. There are even Chinese, Koreans, Japanese who came here in the years when their countries were struggling. The Chinese were imported to work in the sugarcane fields and they have no rights in Asia. It is sad in the case of our American brothers and sisters because they and their ancestors did not choose to be overseas, and unlike the whites fleeing loss of domination, our brothers and sisters have never had a good time in the US and so the expectation of our consideration is not unreasonable, but we live in the times we live in unfortunately.
One thing about South African entities business/gvt??? They don't take their online presence seriously. The information is either outdated or incomplete 😭🖐🏾
Home Affairs is up to date. The issue is whether people are able to understand the rules or not. Unfortunately it’s a lot of legal text that most people battle with, in some cases even some staff whose English language skills aren’t so great make errors.
Thank you Dr Assad. You quoted Luther Vandros whom I admired so much. May his soul rest in peace. True brother there are a lot of Visa processes. Hope all African Americans come home to Africa in a country of South Africa but abide and adhere to the rules that our Mother Africa and again ring the bell to let Mom( South Africa) that you have arrived. Thank you. We love y'all our Melinins in diaspora. I knew you gonna come and make a difference in S.A. I am enjoying your presence in our country. She will hug you and say welcome home my son.
Thanks for clarifying this issue, as much as DHA is inefficient i didn't agree with them getting blamed for Stacy's issue. Visa hopping was outlawed in 2019 already and if you are on a tourist visa you can only stay a maximum of 180 days per year in the country which means you can only renew your 90 days visa only once.
Preach brother, preach! I am Saffrican, i know the trouble i went through for the 1st time i applied for a "working visa" to the US and when i took my kids over there for a 2 week holiday. Americans get a FREE tourist visa and we dont get the same luxuries. Visas are never easy.
This was a great video, Dr. Asad. And very enlightening. Eric & I are not looking forward to the immigration process, but we know it’s a necessary part of the process. We seriously can’t wait to get back. Please tell Adrienne I said hello. We miss you guys.
Jabu should try and consult the Wits Law Clinic. They are situated right next to the Wits Law School at West Campus. They have an immigration/refugee unit that represents clients pro bono. They run the clinic on specific days so he should call them to find out what day they hold consultations for immigration matters. He might not meet the requirements for their means test for representation but they will still give him accurate advise on his appeal. They may even refer him to the best attorneys or advocates that they brief for these matters.
A former colleague was once told to go get a court order declaring her a sole custodian or her son, and the dad had to agree so they could leave. It had been three months of the foreign country not budging, and she had a job waiting for her. I think our brothers form assumptions about African systems based on the few west African countries that are more accessible, and South Africa then becomes a shock to those expecting to find the same environment, not knowing that this is basically a country located in Africa but operating a western system.
Latest news Today 12h00: ( Daily Waverick ) NB: CZcams doesn't allow to send link. Tourists who want to extend their stay in South Africa beyond 90 days still have time to apply for a visa extension.

Who ever said that about you smoking. All I have to say is no one is perfect and you're doing just fine raising your children and taking care of your family so you're already a great example for them.
Thank you Dr. Asad for this information. Speaking on the comments section: Overwhelmingly, many of us understand the process. Please don't paint with such a broad brush. Imagine how many people are going through the process and are patiently waiting. 😒
It makes sense to me. I've been listening to Cliff Hughes on Nationwide FM Jamaica since 2014. Every Monday they have have someone from the US passport office answering questions and concerns. Every nation has it's rules and regulations.
I call CAP with all due respect @ 6:12 My Dear brother Asad. Its not as simple as JUST ringing the doorbell as you make it seem my BELOVED brother. It's CRAZY how HARD "THE PROCESS" that them folk are making it for American Blks to return to the motherland. The incredible hoops we have to jump through, FEES ON TOP OF FEES on top of MORE FEES, the insane qualifications you MUST have, the bank account balances required, & the visa runs are just TOO MUCH. Then after you jump through all those hoops like a circus clown you have to deal with GETTING SCAMMED by almost ALL the locals, the police skimming money from you at checkpoints, the UNDEREVELOPED infrastructure, the BROWN OUTS DAILY, then the final kick in the teeth is that the locals will NEVER FULLY ACCEPT US, and will treat us like MZUNGOO no matter how hard we try to assimilate.
@@colin60366 We all KNOW the process for Africans coming to USA is MUCH MUCH harder because THAT IS NOT THEIR HOME. White people built America FOR THEM and NOT for melanated African people. They would rather have migrant UKRAINIAN people come before blk Africans. So you're comparing apples to ELEPHANTS right now. Africa IS OUR NATURAL HOME and there should NOT be THIS MUCH hassle and so EXPENSIVE.
@@SaulTeeBallsunfortunately visas are negotiated at state level between the 2 countries, there can never be a visa only for african americans, whatever they end up agreeing on will apply to all Americans regardless of color.
@@sbanda1909 If you do some research, you will see that other nationalities coming from OTHER COUNTRIES (Europe, China, Russia) do not have as HARD of a fight to get into Africa and STAY PERMAMANTLY as blk Americans do. I firmly believe the USA DOES NOT WANT black people leaving the USA in masses so they are HELPING make it hard too.
@@sbanda1909 Also too, the South African CONSULATE here in the USA (DC) is TRASH. They never pick up the phones. They do not return Emails for WEEKS. Their English is VERY POOR when they do call back. The phone number was even DISCONNECTED for weeks. The only way you get REAL results is to use an attorney, which be EVEN MORE expensive fees.
I hear you champ and I hear, when I am going to my Mom's house I have a key. I don't need to tell anyone that I am coming. I went to the SA process visa in NYC, and they refused my visa because my host government ID was not notified. I have all the other paperwork, but the day before, they failed to say that. Last I remember, the first time I had to visit Canada, keep in mind I am a Haytian citizen with a greencard. When I made it to border, they just looked at everyone's passports, oh NO VISA, and welcome to Canada, everyone. This is a frequent white country, y'all. So stop. Stop. Stop. When they put our ancestors on that boat, they never needed a visa. Right now in Hayti it is part of our declaration of independence, any Black person looking for a home, they minute they step into Hayti, they are free, they are Haytian and they can buy land. This is how you welcome back a son or a daughter who was kidnapped. So respectfully, you are high. I understand it. The process is still racist. Kenya, Ghana, Nigeria, Rwanda, and Sierra Leone are ahead of the pack. So, I now have my visa for SA, and I am excited. I am going to change that law when I get over there. This is the home of Nelson Mandela. He would never refuse entry to any of us. Yes, the SA policy is legal. It doesn't make it just. Aboriginal needs no paperwork to return home because we never needed one to leave the place, and even a European white terrorist understood that y'all.
1. I admit there needs to be clarity on the items needed for the visa. Again, we did several videos on our visa process and how difficult it was. 2. Visiting Canada and moving to Canada are two very different things. So that example is not germane to thus conversation. 3. High? I am Muslim. I don't do intoxication. It's that type of dumbest comment that makes me lose all respect for yours. 4. If you hold an American passport, you can not even visit Ghana without a visa. Same for Kenya. 4.
The immigration issue is a political hot potato in SA, it's precisely because of the lackadaisical manner in which the governing party dealt with immigration that they are in danger or being voted out later this year, now they are running around trying to tighten the rules.
The Great Philosophical somebody .... once said...never mind ...lol....as usual Dr Asad telling it as it should be the storyteller, should upon up or a link to an online story telling channel...bam bam bam just like that.... n Ye im also saddened by Jabu leaving for a year....gonna miss his big asss vibes. n savanna ... yes, we got to follow the process he will be back before you know it.... peace be with him.... oi oi oi

Then after you jump through all those hoops like a circus clown you have to deal with GETTING SCAMMED by almost ALL the locals, the police skimming money from you at checkpoints, the UNDEREVELOPED infrastructure, the BROWN OUTS DAILY, then the final kick in the teeth is that the locals will NEVER FULLY ACCEPT US, and will treat us like MZUNGOO no matter how hard we try to assimilate.
Try to find out if the process is easy for Africans coming to America.
@@colin60366 We all KNOW the process for Africans coming to USA is MUCH MUCH harder because THAT IS NOT THEIR HOME. White people built America FOR THEM and NOT for melanated African people. They would rather have migrant UKRAINIAN people come before blk Africans. So you're comparing apples to ELEPHANTS right now. Africa IS OUR NATURAL HOME and there should NOT be THIS MUCH hassle and so EXPENSIVE.
@@SaulTeeBallsunfortunately visas are negotiated at state level between the 2 countries, there can never be a visa only for african americans, whatever they end up agreeing on will apply to all Americans regardless of color.
@@sbanda1909 If you do some research, you will see that other nationalities coming from OTHER COUNTRIES (Europe, China, Russia) do not have as HARD of a fight to get into Africa and STAY PERMAMANTLY as blk Americans do.
I firmly believe the USA DOES NOT WANT black people leaving the USA in masses so they are HELPING make it hard too.
@@sbanda1909 Also too, the South African CONSULATE here in the USA (DC) is TRASH. They never pick up the phones. They do not return Emails for WEEKS. Their English is VERY POOR when they do call back. The phone number was even DISCONNECTED for weeks. The only way you get REAL results is to use an attorney, which be EVEN MORE expensive fees.
I hear you champ and I hear, when I am going to my Mom's house I have a key. I don't need to tell anyone that I am coming. I went to the SA process visa in NYC, and they refused my visa because my host government ID was not notified. I have all the other paperwork, but the day before, they failed to say that. Last I remember, the first time I had to visit Canada, keep in mind I am a Haytian citizen with a greencard. When I made it to border, they just looked at everyone's passports, oh NO VISA, and welcome to Canada, everyone. This is a frequent white country, y'all. So stop. Stop. Stop. When they put our ancestors on that boat, they never needed a visa. Right now in Hayti it is part of our declaration of independence, any Black person looking for a home, they minute they step into Hayti, they are free, they are Haytian and they can buy land. This is how you welcome back a son or a daughter who was kidnapped. So respectfully, you are high. I understand it. The process is still racist. Kenya, Ghana, Nigeria, Rwanda, and Sierra Leone are ahead of the pack. So, I now have my visa for SA, and I am excited. I am going to change that law when I get over there. This is the home of Nelson Mandela. He would never refuse entry to any of us. Yes, the SA policy is legal. It doesn't make it just. Aboriginal needs no paperwork to return home because we never needed one to leave the place, and even a European white terrorist understood that y'all.
1. I admit there needs to be clarity on the items needed for the visa. Again, we did several videos on our visa process and how difficult it was.
2. Visiting Canada and moving to Canada are two very different things. So that example is not germane to thus conversation.
3. High? I am Muslim. I don't do intoxication. It's that type of dumbest comment that makes me lose all respect for yours.
4. If you hold an American passport, you can not even visit Ghana without a visa. Same for Kenya.

The immigration issue is a political hot potato in SA, it's precisely because of the lackadaisical manner in which the governing party dealt with immigration that they are in danger or being voted out later this year, now they are running around trying to tighten the rules.
